Find Yourself a Revolver!

From Hommodolars Contrainformación:Many thanks to the Hommodolars crew for posting this little
pamphlet, which may or may not have been written by infamous Chilean
anarchist Efraín Plaza Olmedo. It seems the text was originally published in 1921 in the Santiago Bakers’ Union newspaper El Comunista, under the pen name of Juan Levadura.

Find yourself a revolver!
Find yourself a revolver! Understand?
Find yourself a revolver. The sooner the better. Buy, borrow, or
steal one. The point is that you should be armed. Perhaps you think the
social revolution is going to be made with streamers, like during
carnival? Do you think the capitalists are going to hand over the fields
and factories, like they hand over their daughters to millionaires? Are
you so foolish that you believe in the possibility of harmony between
bosses and workers? Don’t you see how—every day, all over the world—when
workers demand some improvement, tin soldiers carrying rifles and
bayonets appear? Didn’t you see how, during the strike by our comrade
tramway drivers, the entire army moved in to protect the traitors? Well,
if that happens when a complaint is made or some improvement is
requested, what’s going to happen when we demand the right to land,
life, and liberty? Think about it.
Find yourself a revolver and learn how to use it. Make a target to
shoot at. Draw Astorquiza’s, Zañartu’s, or Gonzalo Bulnes’ head on it,
or your own if you like. Shoot and shoot some more. Prepare yourself for
the coming Revolution. Advise your other comrades to do the same. The
ones who talk about “peaceful evolution” and “harmonious solutions”
alongside the capitalist class are woefully deceiving you. Don’t you see
how the workers in Russia had to arm themselves in order to overthrow
all the tyrants? Don’t you see how they now live as they please,
enjoying every kind of comfort? For over 100 years, you have peacefully
endured all sorts of humiliation, and what benefits have you gained from
your masters? The miserable shack you live in and pay a fortune for,
the diseases that bring premature death to you and your children, the
wars that spread hunger and pain to your doorstep, and the scraps you
get when you demand a little food and justice for your family and
children. This, all this, is the reward for your efforts and sacrifices.
Believe it.
Find yourself a revolver. The sooner the better. Buy, borrow, or
steal one. The point is that you should be armed. When the conscious,
armed working class demands its right to life and liberty, then you will
see how the rulers and tyrants fall. While you keep shouting on the
streets like an idiot, begging for bread and justice, you will see how
the bullets rain down on your head.
That’s all. By finding yourself a revolver and advising others to
prepare for the Revolution, you will see the rebirth of a new dawn for
the world.
Find yourself a revolver!

‘Go
find yourself a revolver; the sooner the better. Buy, borrow or rob
one. You should be armed, that’s the point. When the working class,
conscious and armed, demands their rights to life and freedom, then you
will see how the thrones and tyrants fall. As long as you keep screaming
like a fool in the streets, begging for bread and justice, you will see
how the bullets rain down on your head. I put an end. By finding
yourself a revolver and advising others to prepare for the Revolution,
you’ll see the revival of a new dawn for the world. Go find yourself a
revolver!’—from a text originally published in the periodical El Comunista/The Communist of the bakers of Santiago, under the pen name Juan Levadura/‘Yeast’

Letters from Anarchist Prisoners of the "Bombs Case" in Chile

This document is a collection of letters from the Chilean anarchist “Bombs Case” prisoners, in an effort to share and spread their ideas beyond the prison walls. On August 14th, 2010, fourteen anarchists and anti-authoritarians were arrested in a series of raids in Santiago in what became known as the `Bombs Case`. They were accused of a series of bombings against capital and the state that took place around Santiago in the previous years, as well as of “criminal conspiracy” under the Pinochet-era Anti-Terrorist Laws. Since then, following a hunger strike by the prisoners, as well as countless solidarity actions from around the world, the charges against nine of the accused have been dropped (one of these people is facing other charges in a separate trial), but charges against five comrades remain. They are: Omar Hermosilla and Carlos Riveros, accused of providing the money to finance the costs of the attacks, as well as Mónica Caballero, Felipe Guerra, Francisco Solar, accused of the placement of the explosive devices at different points in Santiago. The trial started on November 28, 2011. Prisoners kidnapped by the State to the street! click the cover PDF
